Southern Discoveries
milford sound
Milford Sound has been described as the eighth wonder of the world - but at Southern Discoveries, we simply call it home. Southern
Discoveries offers the widest range of daytime cruises in Milford, convenient departures, fresh hot food options and over 50 years
experience in guiding customers through spectacular Milford Sound. Complimentary translation sheets in English, Mandarin,
Japanese, Korean and German available on all cruises.
Scenic Cruise - sheer rock faces tower hundreds of metres over you as you explore Milford Sound from the viewing decks of one of
our three luxury, spacious catamarans, the only ones in Milford. Extra large windows, expansive outdoor viewing decks, an open
bridge allowing access to the skipper and comprehensive commentary all make this an unforgettable 1hr 45 minute cruise. Hot
buffet lunch available on 11am and 1.30pm.
Encounter Nature Cruise - come within touching distance of the fiord walls, catch pure glacial water from the waterfalls to quench
your thirst and interact closely with your nature guide and skipper as they take you through the fascinating history, wildlife and
features of Milford over 2hr 15min. Take your raincoat (or we have some spares!) and feel the full force of Stirling Falls cascading over
150m onto the front deck - an experience not to be missed! We keep numbers to 75 passengers to ensure space and personal attention.
NEW in 2010 – Milford Discovery Centre & Milford Deep underwater observatory - the only floating structure in Milford, you'll
experience the unique underwater world of Milford plus learn all about the history, early Maori visitors, the Homer Tunnel, Milford
Track building and much more in an interactive learning experience!
Coach, flight and heli connections available from Queenstown and Te Anau. Contact us for more details.
